Maybe take it to a shop that sews patches on.

Check old SOA episodes (which EVERYONE knows is based on true events). First you have to become a snitch. After getting several brothers arrested, they blow a hole right through the jacket where the patch was (I think you're supposed to be wearing it too).

Got any tattoos you need removed? Give me time to re-watch that episode (I forgot to take notes, and I gotta buy more acetylene).

Assuming you are asking for advice because the patch is glued on - try taking an iron to it (the patch) to soften the glue.
CAUTION: Hot irons are hot!

Everybody's a comedian.

Maybe I should have reworded the question. The patch was glued before being sewn on. I was curious about how to remove the glue residue and if it would mess up the leather.

BTW the patch isn't a club patch...just a 10 inch maltese cross.
